I think it legitimizes them when people treat them like they're normal humans with valid opinions that merit some kind of civil debate rather than a solid punch in the head.
They don't care about legitimacy, and they thrive on people's natural impulses to be polite and to avoid confrontation. It normalizes and emboldens them.
They're violent no matter what, and all not punching them accomplishes is that it makes them comfortable. They don't understand much, but they do understand fear, and once they learn to fear being punched in the head every time they start to spout their Nazi shit, they will stop doing it in public.
